Alan Grayson calls himself “A Congressman with Guts,” but his words and actions reveal him to be a congressman without honor. At a time like this, with foreign turmoil and domestic troubles, we need leaders in our government with steady hands and noble hearts. Grayson’s language and behavior both in and out of office have proven to be reckless, spiteful and dangerous.Lots of people have “guts.” A good leader has honor.

Hypocrisy on Israel

In 2009, Grayson, an outspoken opponent of any kind of military action, voted to support Israel’s assault on the Gaza strip. His statement explaining his vote mentioned that he was Jewish. The war would ultimately kill 1,400 people, while Grayson would go on to still staunchly oppose other wars.

On May 30, Grayson introduced a bill that would remove federal funding for any college, public or private, that engaged in any kind of boycott of the Israeli government, economy or academia. The bill was accused of being an attack on civil liberties and repression of free speech.

Alan Grayson didn’t show up to a vote in August over whether the US should continue to fund Israel’s “Iron Dome” defense system. The “Iron Dome” is largely what has kept the Israeli people safe from Hamas rockets.

We need a congressman who will work to bring real solutions, not more division and controversy
